Big game on Saturday I might go to it. The bulldogs were the last side we lost to in a practice match, since then Casey have been flying undefeated while Footscray have struggled with 6 wins and are 14th on the ladder but in their last game they did beat Sandy convincingly by 9 goals.

Possible line up

B: McVee, Ellison, Buntine

HB: Rosman, Turner, Hunt

C: Baker, Dunstan, Woewodin

HF: Laurie, van Rooyen, Bedford

F: M.Brown, Weideman, Chandler

FOLL: Bell, White, Munro

IC: Moniz-Wakefield, Howes, Grey, Baldi, Steele

 

Melb v Bulldogs later the same day at marvel.

Would have been great had this game been the curtain raiser. I'm sure many supporters of both clubs would have enjoyed.

Interesting, so you have Bedford coming out for Oliver?
Tomlinson staying in as Medi-sub?

Where’s Bowey? Emergency?

I think Bedford probably stays in and Spargo goes out for what it’s worth, regardless, that’s a very strong VFL side with a lot of players pushing hard for seniors. Super keen to see Howes, coming into the season Gawny had him as mostly likely to debut this year. Huge wraps, hope he goes well!

The Western Oval is in my manor so I'll probably mosey on down and have a look. A pint at the Victoria Hotel after then on to Docklands for the main event.

There is no way Spargo goes out he was good Bedford hardly touched it. I have Melksham over Bedford just because of the 2 great tackles he laid.

Made the changes above wonder if Steele can be the 23rd man I don't think he has been this year if he can't become the 23rd man a unknown Casey player will possibly come in.

Still time for Howes. Perfect timing. Rd 22 in the Ones and a flag 6 weeks later.

Who’s spot do you see him taking though?
I’m excited to see the kid but coming into the year he was called a wing/mid.

Ed Langdon is close to our most valuable player at his best and James Jordon has arguably been our most consistent player this year. He’s not replacing either of them.
 I’m excited to see Howes, and if he debuts he will have earned it with our list, but I’d think it’s unlikely, Woey has put together some pretty strong performance over the year, Laurie is super close, Chandler also, Dunstan, Melksham, Bedford,  there’s a few that have runs on the board for the year that’d be ahead of him. I hope he gets some development into him, plays out an undefeated Casey season with a flag and comes into pre-season gunning for the seniors.
The injuries or drop in form that would be required for him to play round 22 would also worry me. I hope our 22 gets back to its best footy and stays relatively settled the rest of the season, with Oliver and Petty in for Melk and Tomlinson and no other changes this week we’re as close to our best 22 as we’ve been all season. The only wildcard is TMac.

Sorry I got this slightly wrong, I have a Melksham out for Clarry, Tomlinson out for Petty. But you might be right Bedford might come out for Clarry. 
Statistically though they’re actually very similar Melk 6 disposals, Bedford 5, Melksham  18 pressure acts, Bedford 17. Melksham laid 5 more tackles, had two more score involvements (4-2) and kicked a goal. So on that one game he stays in, however I think Bedford has more upside based on his last few games so it might be a close call. 
Maybe if we decide to go taller and bring in a JVR or Weid both will miss? With Maxy and Dogga both down on contested marking atm maybe this will happen? 

You’re right about Spargo, my initial impression after the game was that his disposal was well off and his pressure was lacking. But watching it again and looking at the stats I’m wrong, he had a few misses by foot and only laid one tackle, which is low for him, but overall he played a solid game, he’s ahead of Bedford and Melk.

Not sure who's spot he takes yet. It will evolve

You can already scratch Sam Weideman who has gone up to the MFC team as a replacement for Ben Brown (knee soreness). Jayden Hunt is now one of the emergencies.

So Hunt misses this one yeh?

Miles Shepherd should get the recall in place of Weideman.  He showed enough in recent games to warrant more opportunities. 

Not saying he won't come in but with Tomo back in couldn't they roll Ellison forward to replace Weid?

Played a number of decent games in this posi before.  Love to see more of him here.  Very solid defender also but talent a bit wasted down back IMV

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
